Feminist bicycle sci fi / fantasy, with witches

A coven races—literally—to fight off the magic smog that threatens their city. A janitor at the last rocket launch site on a dying planet sends the rocket up with a special spell of comfort. Instead of casting the resiliency spell she asked for, a girl's grandmother teaches her to ride a bike. A midwife's bicycle is stolen, resulting in a fitting comeuppance. An urban witch falls for a bicycle mechanic and learns to reconcile her double life. Smash the petropatriarchy and enjoy these and more science fiction and fantasy stories in the pages of the supernatural 9th volume of the popular Bikes in Space series. 

Featuring ten incredible stories by Hester Dade, M. Lopes da Silva, Monique Cuillerier, A. P. Howell, Ether Nepenthes, M. A. Blanchard, Kathleen Jowitt, G. J. Craddock, Gretchin Lair, and Emily Burton.

If you are a fan of sci-fi and appreciate bicycles, then you need to check out the "Bikes in Space" series that Elly Blue has been putting out through Microcosm Publishing. They are collections of short science fiction stories that feature bicycles and are also told through a feminist/queer lens. Each edition in this series has a unique feature - this one is about witches, but others have been about cats, zombies, dragons, etc.

This is just the coolest series. Do yourself a favor and check it out.
